get_forecast

Quantitative probabilistic modeling forecasting sector-relative return distributions, confidence intervals, and realized outcome benchmarks with explicit is_backtest provenance flag.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tickerYesStock ticker, e.g. PLTR, NVDA
outcome_definition_idNoCanonical outcome definition ID (optional)

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
noticeNoFree-tier upgrade notice; only when results are masked/delayed.
resultsYesMachine probability forecast payload with explicit is_backtest provenance flag.
history_limitNoPresent when the license limits history depth: earliest_allowed date, history_days and how many older items were removed.
deprecated_fieldsNoPresent only while a renamed key is still returned next to its replacement: field (old key), replacement (new key, same value), removal (ISO date after which the old key is gone).

TDQS

C2.8/5.0
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations declare readOnlyHint=false on a get_-prefixed tool, which is surprising and unexplained — the description never says whether it computes on demand, persists anything, or incurs cost/latency. The only real behavioral disclosure is the is_backtest provenance flag, which usefully tells the agent backtested vs live results may be mixed, but the non-read-only nature remains a gap.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

A single sentence with no filler, but it is a dense noun pile ('Quantitative probabilistic modeling forecasting sector-relative return distributions') that front-loads jargon rather than the actionable trigger for calling the tool.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so return values needn't be described. However, for a non-read-only tool with two parameters and dozens of sibling analytics tools, the absence of any when-to-use context, cost/behavior notes, or parameter explanation leaves the definition materially incomplete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so both ticker and outcome_definition_id are documented in the schema and the baseline is 3. The description mentions no parameters and never clarifies what an outcome_definition_id selects, so it adds nothing beyond the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names a specific capability: probabilistic forecasting of sector-relative return distributions with confidence intervals and realized-outcome benchmarks. An agent can tell this produces a forecast rather than raw historical data, though it never distinguishes itself from adjacent siblings like get_signal_historical_outcomes or get_track_record.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no guidance on when to call this versus the many look-alike siblings. No prerequisites, no conditions, no exclusions — the agent must infer that this is the 'forward-looking quantitative' option purely from the phrase 'forecasting'.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
